Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

"We have prepared Luzhou Laojiao at home. What kind of wine do you want to bring?" Lao Luo was quite dissatisfied when he saw him and Wang Jiasheng each carrying a box of wine.

"Uncle Luo, this is a trial product. I'm a big customer at the Sugar and Wine Company. They sent me two boxes. Let's try it tonight."

There were two tables of people, and Lao Luo's original small kitchen was too busy to handle it, so they set up a big pot in the yard and were now making stir-fried rice noodles. The aroma wafted across half the village.

"Hey, Uncle Luo, there's abalone in this stir-fried rice noodle. It's really expensive."

"Hahaha, think about how long it has been since you had dinner at my house. You have to prepare more this time."

It was very pleasant to chat with Lao Luo. He never regarded himself as an elder, but more like a friend who was good at joking with each other and making jokes.

After a while, the dishes were served one after another.

The local pig-killing banquet is very different from that in the north. It is not entirely based on pork. For example, most of the dishes on the table are still based on seafood.

Steamed sea bass, steamed red sturgeon (blue crab) with vermicelli, blanched nine-segment shrimps, and stir-fried eight vegetables.

It was well prepared and of a high standard among local family banquets.

Actually, to put it bluntly, Lao Luo wanted to invite only Zhao Qin from the beginning to the end, and Zhao Qin was a good talker, so he couldn't be too poorly prepared.

As for the others, they could only be considered as supporting roles, and were only invited for Zhao Qin's sake.

After a while, the dishes were served and the wine was full. Lao Luo looked at Zhao Anguo jokingly, "Daguo, oh no, I should call you Director, how about an opening remark?"

Lao Luo and Zhao Anguo can be considered true childhood friends, and have been neighbors for decades, so they are as familiar as can be. This statement was naturally a joke.

Zhao Anguo also laughed and responded, "When you were a kid, you always peed when you fell down. What, do you think you can do it now?"

With just one sentence, the whole audience burst into laughter.

Lao Luo blushed, "How can you take my job and expose my shortcomings? There are younger people here."

Zhao Anguo glanced at Zhao Qin and asked, "How about kicking him out?"

"If you want to chase me, wait a while until I have enough food. Besides, the wine on the table today is my gift to you."

Everyone laughed again, and the dinner began in this atmosphere.

The fourth grandfather was the oldest and raised the cup first. "This cup is to thank Mazu. She has taken care of us and made our lives better and better."

Everyone quickly put away their joking hearts and stood up together, "Thank you, Mazu."

Seeing that everyone had finished drinking, the fourth grandfather waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's time to eat and drink."

Zhao Qin toasted and then left the table. He asked Aunt Luo for a small rice bowl. After filling it with rice, he poured some of the sauce from the stir-fried rice noodles on top and began to eat with some crispy dried radish.

Wang Jiasheng didn't drink a drop of alcohol, and his eating habits were similar to his.

No one laughed at the way the two ate. Everyone ate like that when they were young, and it was the same when Asiya was at home.

"Go to the village office after you finish eating." Although Zhao Anguo was drinking, there were already more than 30 people there, so he felt a little worried.

"I'm not a village cadre." Although he said so, Zhao Qin still brought his senior brother to the village.

Instead of rushing to the village office, I went directly to the hotel.

We happened to meet a minibus coming back, and the driver jumped out and said happily, "Aqin, here come 33 more people, it's strange, they wouldn't have come otherwise, but now they are all here together."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Zhao Qin handed the driver a cigarette and was about to light one for himself when he saw a young man jump out of the car and walk straight up to him, "Brother, give me a lighter."

Zhao Qin liked to be familiar with people, so he took out a cigarette and gave it to him, then handed him a lighter.

"I'm dying of suffocation. I got off the plane in the provincial capital and rushed all the way. I haven't smoked for a long time." Wu Hao wanted to finish half of the cigarette in one gulp, and exhaled a puff of smoke.

"Brother, your Beijing dialect is not authentic."

Wu Hao was startled, and paused as he handed over the lighter. "Yours is not authentic either. I'm from Qilu, are you a local?"

“It’s considered local.”

"I heard this place is nice, so I came here. I hope it's not a bad place to go?"

"It's up to you whether you've stepped on a trap or not. I can't say for sure."

"Fuck, after hearing what you said, I'm even more unsure."

Zhao Qin smiled and didn't take the lighter he handed over. "Put it on. Do you have enough cigarettes?"

As he spoke, he handed over the half pack of cigarettes in his pocket.

"Haha, it seems I'm in the right place, buddy, with the right temper."

"Why are you standing there talking nonsense? Come and get your luggage." Another boy next to him shouted.

Wu Hao chuckled and turned around to get his luggage. Although the hotel staff would help him, they still had to sort out their luggage first.

But the next moment he turned around and took the half pack of cigarettes from Zhao Qin's hand, "Thanks, buddy. I owe you half a pack of cigarettes."

Zhao Qin laughed. This boy is interesting. He has a personality similar to Gangzi.

In fact, the premise of being outgoing and friendly comes from self-confidence!

The tourists went to check in, and the bus sped away again. Zhao Qin walked around the lobby and unknowingly came to the souvenir shop.

I found that there were actually two or three young couples hanging out here.

"This is quite expensive. What kind of jade is this?" A girl held a piece of spiral jade in front of her and asked the man next to her, "Does it look good?"

"This one is too small. If you want to buy one, buy the big one."

The waiter took out a bigger one according to the direction of the boy's finger and explained, "This is snail jade. Strictly speaking, it is a snail fossil..."

After some explanation, the boy paid 880 yuan and bought the snail-shaped jade.

Zhao Qin did some calculations in his mind. After deducting the 15% commission from the village service company and the 5% commission from the processing factory master, he could still earn 700 yuan.

As for the cost, I and the boatman picked them up from the island. It just cost some fuel to transport them back. Wow, it's easy to make money.

After staying here for a while, he thought there was nothing to say, so he planned to go home. However, as soon as he walked through the hotel lobby, he saw the familiar young man again.

The other party obviously saw him as well, and walked over from the front desk with a smile, "Dude, is there anything to eat locally? We haven't even finished our dinner yet."

"I'm sorry, this tourist attraction is newly built, the infrastructure is not yet complete, and it's far from the city. At this point, you may have to eat a simple meal."

Wu Hao shrugged. "I came here for the seafood, but you recommend a simple meal for me?"

"You can eat as much as you want tomorrow. It's best to eat it in the evening. It's freshest right off the boat."

Zhao Qin said, and called the hotel manager, "Can you coordinate and arrange some hot dishes for the guests who have come all the way here?"

"Okay, I'll contact the kitchen right away."

"Well, I can only help you up to this point. Let's see what's available. You can only eat something simple. I have something else to do, so I'll excuse myself for now."

Looking at Zhao Qin's receding back, the dormitory leader came closer and asked, "Third brother, do you know him?"

"Hey, I know him, but he doesn't know me."

These words made everyone, including his girlfriend, look puzzled.

"Boss, who do you think he is?"

"How should I know? He's a local, isn't he? And seeing that he can coordinate with the hotel manager, it seems that he is quite capable in the local area, right?"

"He is not just a little capable, he is very capable, a true billionaire."

"Hundreds of billions, third brother, are you kidding us?" The second brother looked unconvinced.

"If you don't believe me, search it online. It's Zhao Qin from Zhonggu Village."
